Added instructions specifically for ESP32-C3, as the procedure for ESP32 does not work.

thanks, but why duplicate the whole text block just to add a different link to the bootloader? I think a better way would be to just add a list on top with links to all bootloaders (maybe exempt the S3 as that booloader is highly hardware specific). I am also not sure the ESP32 instructions hold for WROVER.
@lost-hope can you comment on which bootloader works with which hardware?

You're right. I started to add a section for 0.16 alpha of WLED, which requires 2 additional files to be flashed and then found out that for the current release only the right bootloader was needed.
NVM, I looked up the different models and added a table for the variants.

Edit: TBF, I just saw that for S2 and S3 theres an additional partitions file that needs to be flashed beforehand. I'm not even sure if it is necessary atm for the C3, as with version 0.16 there is a partitions file for C3 (along with a 4th file (bootapp))
